Eh, acabo de reducir el precio de todos los productos. Preparemos nuestras habilidades de programación para la era posterior a la COVID. 
Command en Swift
Command es un patrón de diseño de comportamiento que convierte solicitudes u operaciones simples en objetos.
La conversión permite la ejecución diferida de comandos, el almacenamiento del historial de comandos, etc.
Uso del patrón en Swift
Complejidad:
Popularidad:
Ejemplos de uso: El patrón Command es muy común en el código Swift. La mayoría de las veces se utiliza como alternativa a las retrollamadas (callbacks) para parametrizar elementos UI con acciones. También se utiliza para poner tareas en cola, realizar el seguimiento del historial de operaciones, etc.
Identificación: El patrón Command es reconocible por los métodos de comportamiento en un tipo de clase abstracta/interfaz (emisora) que invoca un método en una implementación de un tipo de clase abstracta/interfaz diferente (receptora) que la implementación del comando ha implementado durante su creación. Las clases de comando se limitan normalmente a acciones específicas.
Ejemplo conceptual
Este ejemplo ilustra la estructura del patrón de diseño Command y se centra en las siguientes preguntas:
- ¿De qué clases se compone?
- ¿Qué papeles juegan esas clases?
- ¿De qué forma se relacionan los elementos del patrón?
Después de conocer la estructura del patrón, será más fácil comprender el siguiente ejemplo basado en un caso de uso real de Swift.
Example.swift: Ejemplo conceptual
import XCTest
/// The Command interface declares a method for executing a command.
protocol Command {
func execute()
}
/// Some commands can implement simple operations on their own.
class SimpleCommand: Command {
private var payload: String
init(_ payload: String) {
self.payload = payload
}
func execute() {
print("SimpleCommand: See, I can do simple things like printing (" + payload + ")")
}
}
/// However, some commands can delegate more complex operations to other
/// objects, called "receivers."
class ComplexCommand: Command {
private var receiver: Receiver
/// Context data, required for launching the receiver's methods.
private var a: String
private var b: String
/// Complex commands can accept one or several receiver objects along with
/// any context data via the constructor.
init(_ receiver: Receiver, _ a: String, _ b: String) {
self.receiver = receiver
self.a = a
self.b = b
}
/// Commands can delegate to any methods of a receiver.
func execute() {
print("ComplexCommand: Complex stuff should be done by a receiver object.\n")
receiver.doSomething(a)
receiver.doSomethingElse(b)
}
}
/// The Receiver classes contain some important business logic. They know how to
/// perform all kinds of operations, associated with carrying out a request. In
/// fact, any class may serve as a Receiver.
class Receiver {
func doSomething(_ a: String) {
print("Receiver: Working on (" + a + ")\n")
}
func doSomethingElse(_ b: String) {
print("Receiver: Also working on (" + b + ")\n")
}
}
/// The Invoker is associated with one or several commands. It sends a request
/// to the command.
class Invoker {
private var onStart: Command?
private var onFinish: Command?
/// Initialize commands.
func setOnStart(_ command: Command) {
onStart = command
}
func setOnFinish(_ command: Command) {
onFinish = command
}
/// The Invoker does not depend on concrete command or receiver classes. The
/// Invoker passes a request to a receiver indirectly, by executing a
/// command.
func doSomethingImportant() {
print("Invoker: Does anybody want something done before I begin?")
onStart?.execute()
print("Invoker: ...doing something really important...")
print("Invoker: Does anybody want something done after I finish?")
onFinish?.execute()
}
}
/// Let's see how it all comes together.
class CommandConceptual: XCTestCase {
func test() {
/// The client code can parameterize an invoker with any commands.
let invoker = Invoker()
invoker.setOnStart(SimpleCommand("Say Hi!"))
let receiver = Receiver()
invoker.setOnFinish(ComplexCommand(receiver, "Send email", "Save report"))
invoker.doSomethingImportant()
}
}
Output.txt: Resultado de la ejecución
Invoker: Does anybody want something done before I begin?
SimpleCommand: See, I can do simple things like printing (Say Hi!)
Invoker: ...doing something really important...
Invoker: Does anybody want something done after I finish?
ComplexCommand: Complex stuff should be done by a receiver object.
Receiver: Working on (Send email)
Receiver: Also working on (Save report)
